⁴ Make your ways known to me, Lord;
    teach me your paths.
⁵ Lead me in your truth—teach it to me—
    because you are the God who saves me.
        I put my hope in you all day long.
⁶ Lord, remember your compassion and faithful love—
    they are forever!
⁷ But don’t remember the sins of my youth or my wrongdoing.
    Remember me only according to your faithful love
        for the sake of your goodness, Lord.

⁸ The Lord is good and does the right thing;
    he teaches sinners which way they should go.
⁹ God guides the weak to justice,
    teaching them his way.
¹⁰ All the Lord’s paths are loving and faithful
    for those who keep his covenant and laws.
¹¹ Please, for the sake of your good name, Lord, forgive my sins, which are many!

¹² Where are the ones who honor the Lord?
    God will teach them which path to take.
¹³ They will live a good life,
    and their descendants will possess the land.
¹⁴ The Lord counsels those who honor him;
    he makes his covenant known to them.
